  Safety - 2005 Chevrolet Impala
  By Terri - July 27 - 6:00 pm

  I purchased a 2005 Impala after being T- boned in my 2003 Impala last month. The safety rating was the determining factor in 2003, and it proved to be correct. While the car was totalled, I was not hurt, and the 3 carseats in the back were untouched. The car is extremely comfortable, roomy and fuel efficient. It handles nicely, and above all, it is built to protect passengers in the case of a crash.

  It is what it is, and its good for that - 2005 Chevrolet Impala
  By Frank - April 18 - 3:36 am

  It kills me that some people want or expect a Corvette out of this car. The Impala is a great car for its class. The engine is responsive but not overpowering, the exterior design is very nice, and the interior isnt bad, but could use some improvement. I have not attempted to blaze through s-turns at 130MPH, but I imagine that it wont do so well. So what? Its a full-size, 4-door sedan, not a Porsche. The sound system is good. Its pretty quiet compared to a Maxima or Taurus, although its no Caddy in that department. Overall, its a great value for its size and class!

  Excellent noise free ride, good torque & fuel economy. Excellent style & interion space, roomy trunk. Engine is easy to service as there is room to spare for changing serpentine belt & oil filter.

  I Enjoy it - 2005 Chevrolet Impala
  By D. Paluch - November 16 - 5:33 pm

  I am 63" tall. The Impala is the only auto of this size with a console that lets me drive without having my right knee continually pressing uncomfortably against the shift console. The Impala is quick,agile,and brakes well. I agree the interior ergonomics are not as well done as in my wifes Accord, but for long trips and comfort for a larger individual it cant be beat.

  Good, fun transportation - 2005 Chevrolet Impala
  By John Schmidt - October 25 - 7:46 pm

  Our 2005 Impala is a replacement for an older Cadillac that was recently totalled. The Impala is a very nice car in all aspects. We appreciate the build quality, handling and monochromatic look of the great dark graphite metallic color. The car provides plenty of room, and we like the sporty appearance. We are pleased with our car and our dealer.

  Great car - 2005 Chevrolet Impala
  By Brand - August 31 - 2:50 am

  Ive just purchased my second Impala (keeping the first one). These are great cars for the money and stand up to fleet-type use. I would strongly recommend an Impala for any value oriented shopper looking for a solid, well-built, roomy, quick, large sedan.

  I love this car! - 2005 Chevrolet Impala
  By D. Hintze - April 21 - 1:16 am

  This car has been my dream car for the last 3 yrs. I have been so happy with it. It handles like a dream, and is very easy to drive. I drove a Chevy S10 Blazer for 8 yrs. Gets great gas mileage. It is just a wonderful car. Now my husband is wondering how he is going to get me sleeping in the house again!

  Loving my Impala - 2005 Chevrolet Impala
  By Jazzy - April 10 - 8:06 am

  This is one comfy car - it corners well, handles well, is responsive, has both pep and good gas economy. TONS of room with a giant trunk. There is a bit of excess noise with the moon-roof opened, and no factory-made windscreen for it. Heater fan gets loud, and it is time to get a set-by-temperature feature instead of the slide bar to control heat.

  This car not only has comfort, but it has luxury too. A smooth ride and all the extras make this a great car for the money. I cant say enough good about it!
